A three dimensional, tactile mapping of experiences across a section through Chicago
is prototyped here. Data was gathered through several bike trips, personal visits to
residents and businessmen, Google street
view, and Police records to compile 12 spatial
qualities for each block of Halstead street from 500 N to 5500 S. Each unit represents
a block, displaying the amount of attractors and repulsors our team noted. The study
revealed fluid borders within the city, the affects of delineation spilling over in
gradients, and curious flows in the levels of crime in relation to perceived safety and vacancy.
